The predecessor of May 25th every year is "College Students' Mental Health Day". In 2004, the Central School Department of the Communist Youth League and the All-China Federation of Students decided to designate May 25th of each year as the National Mental Health Day for college and middle school students (including students from secondary vocational schools). The homonym of "May 25th" is "I love me", reminding college and middle school students to "cherish life and care for themselves".
The core content of this festival is: care for yourself, know yourself, accept yourself, pay attention to your mental health and spiritual growth, improve your psychological quality, and then love others and society.
Extended data:
The concept of mental health of college and middle school students is vague and even misunderstood, and they will not admit that they have psychological disorders until they reach the level of drug treatment.
World Mental Health Day was initiated by the World Psychiatric Association on 1992 and is scheduled for 10+00 every year.
In 2000, it was initiated by the General Branch of the Department of Psychology of Beijing Normal University and the Student Union, and then more than a dozen colleges and universities responded, and with the approval of relevant departments, it was determined that May 25th was the "Mental Health Day for College Students in Beijing". "5.25" is the homonym of "I love me", and the promoter's explanation is that only by loving oneself can we love others better. In 2004, the Central School Department of the Communist Youth League and the All-China Federation of Students decided to designate May 25th of each year as the National Mental Health Festival for college and middle school students.
The choice of such an important day as May 25th was carefully chosen. First of all, May 4th is May 4th Youth Day. May has always been endowed with the same vitality and passion as young people.
As a new generation of young people, the preferred activity is of course May. Secondly, in view of the lack of mental health knowledge of college and middle school students, which leads to insufficient understanding of their own psychological problems, "Mental Health Day" is to advocate college and middle school students to love themselves, cherish their own lives, seize their own opportunities, create a better road to success for themselves, and develop from cherishing themselves to caring for others and society.
